This is my favorite Sawanoi I've ever had!
As expected of a Nakakumi, it is easy to drink and beautifully delicious!
It was easy to drink.

This sake is named after Mr. Tsuenzaburo, who quelled a water dispute and stabilized the water supply in the area.
Frankly speaking, the taste was not impressive, but the name and anecdotes made it very memorable.
I thought it tasted and smelled very much to my liking, and when I looked it up, I found that the aroma reminded me of a gorgeous melon, and I knew that my preference was for an aroma that could be described as melon.
It is a delicious sake that never gets old.

Even with a 91% rice polishing ratio, it is a juicy junmai sake with no cloying taste. The brewery's recommendation of heating it up is good, but I prefer to drink it cold for a refreshing drink.

I really felt the taste of Nakadori.
A beautiful taste that shows the flavor of the rice.
It was delicious.

I liked last year's Shirokuma label, but this year it was a low-alcohol Junmai, and the watery aftertaste was disappointing.
Although it was not my favorite, I am glad that I can now compare it with last year's.

The strong gassiness is pleasant and seems to be a good sake to serve to a large number of people for a toast.
When the gas was gone a little, I felt a strong sweetness, which I did not like, but after leaving it longer, it became more accustomed to the taste and became more delicious.

I thought it was a little dry when I started drinking it in a boar cup, and when I drank it in a wine glass, which was also on the neck label, I thought the aroma was more floral.
Sake that goes well with a thin glass.

It was recommended to us by a liquor store owner who regularly ranks it No. 1 in the Ponshukan and has a good reputation among customers. It is indeed an easy-drinking, regular sake with a delicious aroma that stands out even when chilled.
Slightly vanilla-like with a hint of sweetness. It was not enough when chilled, so I served it at room temperature.
